I was with the impression that the minds of the poets meet in heavens and not where you indicated, my dearest CayCay. Ha-ha! Nevertheless, I thank you for your visit and comment. Certainly I will be visiting you!

Very true, Demetrios, I stay away from people with their large egos.

In many cases the Egos, are larger than the people themselves, dear Eve!. Thank you so much!

Ego is the root of all earthly suffering,and yes it should be uprooted and that too for sure if it's planted in the soil of love.

So true my friend. Ego is arrogance. When found it leaves a serious blemish on the one with the ego. How can someone be happy in a relationship with Donald Trump lol he was the example Demetrios. I don't mean to pick on Mr Trump but it is highly noticeable on him. I hope I wasn't too harsh Demetrios we all have our little blemishes some have them worse then others. Love your write my friend. Blessings your way.

Picking on those who pick on other people is a justified reaction! We have to defend those who are unjustly attacked, my good friend, Michael! Thank you for your kind visit and comment!
